Answer:

b) In nature, only embryonic stem cells give rise to all the different types of cells in the organism.

Explanation:

Embryonic stem cells are special type of cells formed in the embryonic stage of the life cycle of a living organism. Embryonic stem cells are capable of differentiating into every other type of cells that exists in an organism. Besides the embryonic stem cells, other types of stem cells exist, one of which is the adult stem cell.

The adult stem cell is a type of stem cell found in the tissues of adult organisms as opposed to those found in the embryo. One substantial difference between the embryonic and adult stem cells is that the embryonic stem cells are the only type of stem cells capable of giving rise to all the different types of cells in an organism i.e. embryonic stem cells are capable of differentiation while adult stem cells are not.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

3 North poles and 3 South poles

Explanation:

A magnet is a piece of object that produces a magnetic field outside itself. A magnet has a north pole and a south pole. Similar poles repel each other, while opposite poles attract each other.

If a magnet of 10cm is broken into 3 pieces, we will have 3 pieces of magnet. Breaking a magnet does not destroy the properties of the magnet. Rather, each piece becomes a full magnet with both north and south poles.

Breaking a 10cm magnet will give us 3 magnets with 3 north and 3 south poles with equal pole strength.

A 67-year-old client reports to her healthcare provider that she is having difficulty during intercourse, causing her pain and d
Yakvenalex [24]

The cause of the client’s pain must be because of atrophy of bulbouretheral glands. The bulbourethral glands are the one responsible for secreting a substance which we call alakaline, in order to be able to provide neutralization in the acidic environment in a person’s urethra. The bulbourethral glands are also responsible in having to provide lubrication to a person when having to do a sexual intercourse. If it gradually declines in its effectiveness, during sexual intercourse, it would likely cause the person to have pain and have difficulty in having to do an intimacy with the person’s partner as atrophy may be present in the person’s bulbourethral gland.
